The cygwin project is explicitly trying to bury the "text" mount option
and drive towards binary (= \n line endings) only. They once had a rule
that all cygwin programs fully grok \r\n, but that ethic disappeared a
couple of years ago, it was just too hard. The cygwin git port itself
will not operate on a text mount, it requires a binary mount, so crlf
translations are simply not available with git under cygwin.
